How are these rocks formed. Never heard of them.
Hi just found your Channel I like everything but sweetie pun intended please find another word other than sweet pretty please with sweetness on top. Also how thunder eggs formed and why are there insides different from the outside. Thank you
@@monicaholley606 telling me how to talk is icky
I'm in AWE❤
Your format is great. Cut the rock. Show the rock. Down to business. No chit chat just to make it longer. Thank you SO much.
Thanks!
I agree time is is money but we have lives and subscribe to alot of channels and need to get to them all.great going all the same
Never heard of Thunder Eggs, but they are amazing.
I haven't either
@@ezramarks6081 I heard about them in a video game called ty the Tasmanian tiger
I didn't even know, there existed an animal of that name.
@@CONEHEADDK lol
I only heard about them from Stardew Valley.
I was given a thunder egg geode when I was a kid and it started my love of rocks. I still have that thunder egg over 40 years later.
She’s a cute cat
Same - I meant to cut it but never have.
@@flyingardilla143 mine was given to my cut and polished.
I love how much the inside of thundereggs can resemble landscapes! as a person who likes to paint landscapes (NOT a professional!! just a hobby) I'd love to paint some based of of thundereggs. I have one in my collection that looks like the moon over the water, very pretty.
Right! Some look like beautiful views of mountains, lakes and with a sky! Giving some Bob Ross vibes with some!
Yes ! The insides kinda make me think about the beginning of creation . Like in harmony with the Genesis account in the Bible.
I was about to say rhe same thing, like little picture stones
anyone else feeling like those look like landscapes? absolutely stunning!
Absolutely!
These are amazing! They all appear to have some sort of nature scene in them and you can't get any better than that in my opinion ☺️
They really do have a nature scene!
Yeah the one at 4:43 looked like mountains to me!
That double egg looks like the stairway to heaven with Angles in the middle. I would absolutely LOVE to have one like this, but will probably never be duplicated.
I see them. Reaching to touch fingers.
wooooaaahh 4:40
looks like a sandy desert
mountains in the distance
with a bright starry sky
You can see so many pretty pictures in them. From nebula’s to snowy horizons to skies touching oceans & more. And just when I thought I’d found my favourite of the bunch the next one turned out to be even better than the last! Very cool stuff. 😄
They look like a collection of badges when you have them all together.
Stunningly beautiful.
Oh wow they're so pretty. I like the outer layer.It's like a frame for a painting.
the one at 4:42 is amazing! it looks like a desert landscape at night with mountains in the distance and the milky way in the sky
4:55 I like this one. Kinda looks like a ice lake with mountains and sky behind it. 😊
Last one is so gnarly!!!!!!!
I didn't know thunderseggs was a real thing! I used to collect them in one of my childhood games! 😲
Have you ever slabbed thunder eggs. Wondering if some of these cores would be translucent.
I've never heard of thunder eggs before.. this would be a first and totally awesome. My favorite is the one that looked like an ocean scene. So nice and thank you for sharing.
OMG! I love them! Thunder eggs are so beautiful! So many details! 😊
That is so beautiful, they look like windows to alien worlds! Thank you so much for sharing this.
Wow! That lone star pattern core is CRAZY! Everyone is beautiful! Thanks for posting this.
The one at 3:56 looks like the sky at dusk. Absolutely mesmerizing
Wow, just wow..those were some gorgeous thunder eggs..my most favorite was the last one, I loved everything about it, pretty unique😊
The one on the left at Time stamp 3:43 looks like 2 young girls faces. It popped right out at me at first. So cool! 😊 I agree that most of these look like landscapes. Gorgeous! 😊
The last egg looks like a nebula, so gorgeous
They all look like pictures from the universe ✨️
They really do! So many landscapes!
4:41 the most beautiful stone ive ever seen. its literally a bob ross landscape made by nature.
Right?!
@@AgateDad Do you ever wonder what it would have looked like if you had cut it on the opposite axis? Or are there tell tale signs you look for?
Absolutely in love with watching you cut those Thunder eggs. Gorgeous banding!
Love your videos, so amazing to see Mother Nature's awesome creations that your work reveals time and time again. ❤🇨🇦🙋♀️
I love your videos so much, thank you for existing. The star shapes get me every time, amazing!
Beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder. My favorite was the one at 4:42. I think that is the most beautiful thunder egg ever! What fun cutting them all open!
WOW!!! All those eggs turned out great with their contents!
I'm so happy that they went to a good home. I look forward to see which ones you end up polishing :)
There will be a lot that get polished! Thanks again Kyle!
@@AgateDad you are most welcome, Taylor! 🤠👍💎
Awesome!!! Great video!!!
Where do you find thunder eggs?
You guys have an amazing hobby! As I was mentioning to this creator what would it take for me to get one of these to cut open up here in Canada? Look forward to hearing back from you when you get a moment! Cheers, Jerbs
Those have landscapes. They are all beautiful in their own way. Love them all. ♥️😁
They sure do!
The thunder egg at 2:44 looks like a photograph of the sea, with clouds at the top. That's just amazing, like a small Portal to another place 😱
Wow these stones have such deep patterns its like abstract art encapsulating emotions and stories
WOW! So amazing! They are like miniature landscapes inside 😲
The last two looked like oceans 😃
How much fun was that? Your excitement is worth it! Richardson Ranch eggs are amazing. And since you cant dig them yourself anymore, makes them all the more special. And the opal filled eggs looked like maybe they were succor creek eggs. But they were all spectacular! Im glad they were fun and not duds for you! I like the one with the little geode vugs of drusy in it! The side with the two vugs looks like a character from nightmare before christmas! Thanks for sharing your beautiful thundereggs! i know you are going to have a blast polishing them for sure!
they look like little abstract pictures of sea, water, desert, stars, nebulas and galaxies. Pretty cool little things.
Randomly see this awesome vid. Never heard of thunder eggs before. At first, i saw random formations of geo-stuff. At 4:49 , i saw portait of a lakeside at night with full of stars. I think thats the magic with those stones. After that, each stone looked like something. Somewhere from space, lake, forest, sea, sunset...
Fossilised crap that’s what they are lol
@@darkshaman7087 It's well made fossiled crap than :) Don't wanna discuss how mine looks like... :D
@@OzzYY1988 its known as coprolite (Dinosaurs poo) so now we are talking real shit here haha, I have never heard of thunder eggs but thunder stones which is caused by lightning, and yes it’s better not to discuss anything about yours… Also I really understand how quartz crystals help to heal and they also protect, it’s nothing to magical about them just common sense haha
Those are beautiful!! Really incredible!! Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you. It’s so lovely to see thunder eggs from another part of the world. Check out the ones from Mount Hay in Queensland Australia. Every location has it’s different characteristics and it’s nice to see the different varieties.
I love thunder eggs because they’re like those mystery boxes, you never know what you’re gonna get. I wish I could cut that many open lol.
The one at 4:00 made me thing of a thunder storm. Like a sunset cloudy sky in the desert. Love it
You would never get bored looking at those, all very beautiful 👍🥰
4:48 reminds me of standing on ice in the middle of the night looking towards mountains, with the cosmos above them. My favorites of all of them really. But that last one of heaven above and hell below was cool.
I never heard of thunder rocks. That is so cool. Thanks for sharing.
So very interesting. Mother Nature has been very busy and thank God for that.
Those are so beautiful, I knew there were things like that out there but to actually see them , thank you for sharing
So cool. 1:34 kind of looked like the silhouette of a dog. Lol
I hadn't seen much in regards to thunder eggs before seeing you cut them, and I admit to being smitten. Take care, and thanks for sharing!
My first love of my youth. Rocks!!Had the geology kits as a kid. S. Dakota summers from a Florida boy had plenty to look for. Arrowheads and cool rocks we didn’t have in flatland. Still came across cool stuff at home. Geological adventure is always fun. I’m 62 but have never stopped being on the lookout for s keeper. One eye on the ground always
The landscapes and the one you said was your fave looked like a reverse sunset
Some of these look like little landscape/ocean shore paintings inside and I'm all about it rn
My favorite was the little guy at the 2 minute mark.
Great job! I would love to find some of those one day.
my fav is the 2:47 one, i can see the sea the air and the clouds.
that is a beauty
that second to last one you cut (your favourite) looks like a window overlooking a moody ocean, so incredibly beautiful
3:43 I actually gasped when you popped that one open. It's sooooooo atmospheric
lol edited to add 4:50 is beyond stunning
A friend of mine who comes from a long line of rock/gem hounds told me the best agates look like an impressionist landscape.
Just found your channel. I appreciate the way you edit! It’s very relaxing and informative. Thank you for the videos!
I appreciate that!
Being an older woman, I think the one with the flowers were in. Lovely.
Oh man, those star ones are incredible! 🤩🎉✨
Wow dude! First time ever seeing thunder eggs before! Those are crazy! I'm in love
@00:37 looks like a sunset by the ocean while standing by a rocky cliff. 🥹😩🌊💜
My favorite kind of thing to cut next to coconut's from Mexico, they are full of surprises also. Nice stuff!
Oh wow. Never heard of thunder eggs before, but the name and looks are just so fitting! It's as if those eggs of thunder were giving us a little sneak peak windows into other worlds from somewhere above our heads. I love it!
Absolutely breathtaking!!! Thank you so much for sharing this video! ✌️🇺🇸😀
I've dug thunderegs at that same ranch in Oregon. The ones you got are great. WOW!!!!!
4:48 that one (chefs kiss) just perfect
All were so pretty. My favorite was the star & the last one you did. One half of the star looked like a mountain scene with the moon shining.
OMG ,this is what I'm talking about, WOW so Awesomely. So fun , I Live for rocks .
🙌
Such an unusual outside these have. I don't know how they formed that way, but that was fun. Thank You !
The one at 4:55 right looks like a lake or glacier, in the background mountains with night sky so nice
Cool I've never even heard of Thunder eggs
Gorgeous, can't wait to see them polished. "Fargo", hahaha 😆!
Glad someone caught that lol
I wonder if it's possible to dissolve or burn off the outer layer, leaving just the 'glass egg' inside?
are you talking about the like brown parts or just the surface?
@@soupmanofthecan8325 probably the surface
@@soupmanofthecan8325 I had an assumption that was way off base.
I thought they were like natural fulgurites, when you use a metal rod to cause lightning strikes to hit pure sand, creating glass.
Thunder eggs are a geological formation where mineral and agate can be drawn in to a hot gas bubble.
I was curious if you could remove the entire outer layer, leaving just the mineral/agate formation in the center.
Instead of a 2D slice or half, the 3D part in the center.
I do not think it is possible, maybe with a laser and a computer, someone could make a 3D model and print it, idk.
It's amazing how those designs are made inside. Awesome
I'm so glad youtube recommended me this video knowing well that I grew up playing Ty the Tasmanian Tiger so all I heard when seeing the title was "THUNDAH EGGS" and my day has been made
It Looks like a painted landscape pictures inside 😍🤩😇
The one at 4:40 is absolutely stunning! Wow
My heart is the 11th. Its core seem a landscape paint, with black mountains painted on blue/white of the sky... 😍😍😍
Stunning !!!!
Richardson ranch is pretty awesome. you go find them, dig em up and cut em. It's the whole experience from start to finish, can't beat that.
They are all so beautiful. Now I want to go out and find thunder eggs 😍😍
That last one looked liked a galaxy!
They are so so fantastic, mini landscapes through fantasy windows.
Wow 👏 those thunder eggs are so beautiful on the inside. Thunder eggs are truly amazing. Liked. Greetings from east Texas. From Jordan
Nice! And baby yoda at 3:11. 😂
Haha, not baby today, baby YODA. Stupid autocorrect. 😂
These are INCREDIBLE!!!!!😍
Awesome video! Sent me down a rabit hole learning about these things and its been lots of fun. such pretty thunder eggs!
Wow! Flashbacks to some of the good parts of my childhood!!!
Thunderbird Park in Australia offers fossicking for Thundereggs.
If you find a good one, they'll cut and polish it there for you.
Those thundereggs are incredible, that last one looked like a galaxy in a agate
The thunder egg with the moss looks like a butterfly and I love it 😀 😍❤️🦋
OMG, I went to Richardson's Ranch in Oregon when my body was ten sun cycles of age! I had a thunder egg from there for a long time. 👍
Some of those look like landscapes and/or oceans with sky. Gorge
I have one Richardson thunder egg. I love them. That had to a blast cutting all of them. Fun to see what they are going to look like inside of all of them. I like the star patterns. That's a bunch of awesomeness!
It was so much fun!! They were all perfect treasures
The one at 4:50 looks like a landscape painting. Looks like something that Bob Ross would paint mountains and sky also a beach at the bottom.
Just WOW!!!
Gorgeous!!!! Thank you for sharing!
I never get tired of seeing what may be hidden inside a rock. You found some pretty cool pieces.
GD
Can’t pick a favorite, love them all! Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for watching! They’re all so good!
